Professor of English Studies Kisha Tracy, who holds a Ph.D. in Medieval Studies from the University of Connecticut, discusses her research shared in a recent Harrod Lecture, Fitchburg State’s longstanding faculty lecture series. Dr. Tracy explores decolonizing the study of disability in the Middle Ages -- and how that research fits more broadly within her work as a medievalist specializing in disability studies with a particular focus on mental health.
